Cormac McCarthy loved Ernest Hemingway, and today I'll discuss the relationship between the two. For some reason, you can't mention Papa Hemingway in the title without getting demonetized, so expect more weird titles in the future lol.

The historical device Cormac McCarthy uses in Blood Meridian to display Judge Holden's supernatural strength is the Tucson Meteor. In this video, we will discuss how McCarthy uses the meteorite, vibe on the meteor's history, and discuss how strong Judge Holden really is...

Cormac McCarthy had some positive and negative words for Albert Einstein in his last novel "Stella Maris." Today we will examine Einstein's relation to Arthur Schopenhauer, Einstein/McCarthy's view of free will, and another fun physics-related talk!

Who is the greatest living author now that Cormac McCarthy has died? Honestly, there aren't many! Cormac is such an OG in the game and making this list made me very pessimistic for fiction writing until a new wave of writers emerge!

Almost all of Cormac McCarthy's novels feature some weird stuff... Today, we are going to be breaking down all the taboo topics in McCarthy novels!

What does Cormac McCarthy believe happens after death? Is Cormac McCarthy a Christian? Did Cormac McCarthy write about his death through his novels before it happened? We will answer all these questions today and more with this deep philosophical dive into Cormac McCarthy's views on death!

Cormac McCarthy died this morning at his Santa Fe, N.M. home. He was 89. The cause is unknown, but this is a massive blow to literature. Cormac McCarthy was our greatest living novelist, and few others will fill the void. Over the past seven months, I've released almost 100 videos on McCarthy, and I plan to make thousands more over the decades. Cormac McCarthy Streetwear if you want to rep McCarthy to the masses! https://writeconscious.com/cormac-mccarthy-shirts/ With his twelve novels, McCarthy has more actionable rabbit holes to follow than whole literary movements (cough, post-modernists 🤣). Yet, parts of me still yearn for more about McCarthy's life. His reclusiveness is cryptic, and his death is final. One quote that comes to mind is from Suttree. “How surely are the dead beyond death. Death is what the living carry with them. A state of dread, like some uncanny foretaste of a bitter memory. But the dead do not remember and nothingness is not a curse. Far from it.”

Cormac McCarthy is a co-writer for the Blood Meridian movie screenplay! This is massive news for the potential of this movie. However, at the age of 90, is McCarthy really up to the task of turning this into a masterpiece? The Blood Meridian movie has been attempted to be done over five times, but now that McCarthy has his hands in, it should come out! So, are you more confident in the success of Blood Meridian Movie now? Blood Meridian Streetwear Collection https://writeconscious.com/cormac-mccarthy-shirts/

Read a crazy article that said Blood Meridian is a social justice novel lmao. So let's have some laughs and see if the most violent American Canon novel can get shoved into the diversity box 🤣 Supposedly Cormac set out to write a medium of restorative justice with Blood Meridian. All races, classes, and even the Idiot have an opportunity to enact equitable violence against a diverse cast of people. It's like San Fransisco 🤣 There are bi-racial gay relationships, multicultural friendships, commentary on mental handicaps, examples of sexual assault, PTSD, and other issues.

Cormac McCarthy has been flamed for decades for his lack of female characters, objectification of women, using male movies for female characters, and seeing women as vessels for exploitation. Today, I will be examining and refuting these claims!

BOOM, CARL JUNG FANS, we are live straight out of the southwest! Today, we are introducing Jung's primary therapeutic technique, Active Imagination. First will explore how Jung's break from Daddy Freud helped him conceive Active Imagination. We will then track the progression of Active Imagination's development over fourteen years before Jung released the idea to the public.

In this YouTube video, we explore the views of renowned psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Jung on yoga. According to various articles, Jung criticized the application of yoga to the Western world, as he believed that the spiritual development of the West had followed a different path from that of the East. However, Jung's work focused on understanding the unconscious and the totality of the psyche, and his exploration of yoga encompassed different lenses, combining Western empiricism with spiritual experiences.

Welcome to a new Cormac McCarthy miniseries on how to write like Cormac McCarthy! Today we are focusing on how McCarthy got so great at writing landscape/nature passages! 🌵💼 In McCarthy's novels, the setting isn't just a backdrop, it becomes a living, breathing character in its own right. From the barren and unforgiving landscapes of "Blood Meridian" to the post-apocalyptic world of "The Road," McCarthy has a knack for immersing readers in the environments he creates. In this video, we will explore how YOU can achieve this level of depth and realism in your writing.

With the publication of The Passenger/Stella Maris, Wendigoon making a video on Blood Meridian, and the announcement of the Blood Meridian movie Cormac McCarthy's work is attracting many new fans. McCarthy's logical, violent, and nature-oriented novels draw a very bizarre group of men 🤣 In this video, I discuss how we should approach and feel about all of our fellow weirdos 👽

What genre is Cormac McCarthy? The obvious answer is literary fiction, but in today's show, we will explore if The Border Trilogy, The Road, No Country For Old Men, Outer Dark, Child of God, and The Orchard Keeper are genre works!

This is an in-depth guide to how David Foster Wallace drafts his iconic non-fiction pieces. His method is not for the faint of heart and won't work if you're a 2023 simulacra writer. It requires research, patience, and an immense mastery of writing fundamentals.

We are playing a fun game of over/under rated today! This isn't my definitive ranking video, but a response to the community's perception of McCarthy's novels! If you want to partpiate, copy the The Orchard Keeper: Outer Dark: Child of God: Suttree: Blood Meridian: All the Pretty Horses: The Crossing Cities of the Plain No Country for Old Men: The Road: The Passenger: Stella Maris:

In this video, we look at the most definitive quote in Cormac McCarthy's career on the purpose of life. No, it is not violence, getting tough like David Goggins, being an existentialist, or a logic bro. It's something most of us have never had and avoid like the plague!

In this episode of the Cormac McCarthy Underground we are joined by Cormac McCarthy fan Shane Harrington who is the founder of Cinemart

Blood Meridan by Cormac McCarthy features an idiot. McCarthy takes a unique take on idiocy and diverts from classical literature and his mentors, Faulkner and Flannery O'Connor. In this video, we discuss the role of The Idiot in Blood Meridian, analyze his character, and discuss Cormac McCarthy's motive for including him in Blood Meridian!

Cormac McCarthy's novel Blood Meridian is packed with fairy lore, liminal spaces, and otherworldly beings. Exploring the Sonoran, Chihuahuan, and Sierra Madre Occidental faerie zones in Blood Meridian enables a reader to transcend the western woodland conception of fairies into the Duende spirit. A manifestation of an otherworldly evil. Judge Holden, The Kid, and the men that look like "fairybook beasts" are archonic/archetypal characters representing something ambiguous to logic. What axiomatic tradition does McCarthy draw these ideas? In today's video, I will postulate the faerie energy/tradition aligns most with the characters of Blood Meridian!

An adaption of Cormac Mccarthy's Blood Meridian has just been announced! New Regency will back the film with John Hillcoat (UGH) directing it! The movie will seemingly come out in 2025, with Cormac McCarthy and his son John McCarthy serving as executive producers. Do you think Blood Meridian should become a movie? Who do you think should be cast as The Judge and The Kid? What do you think of John Hillcoat directing the Blood Meridian movie? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cormac McCarthy Course: https://writeconscious.com/cormac-mccarthy-course/ Cormac McCarthy Newsletter: https://writeconscious.com/cormac-mccarthy-newsletter Cormac McCarthy T-Shirts: https://writeconscious.com/cormac-mccarthy-shirts/ Cormac McCarthy Underground (Podcast) https://writeconscious.com/cormac-mccarthy-underground/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 👀 Follow me for daily literature and writing content! 👀 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/writeconscious TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@writeconscious Twitter: https://twitter.com/writeconscious
